According to the American Academy of Dermatology here are a few tips to keep your hair healthy:

If you have oily hair you should wash it more frequently

Chemically treated or dyed hair should be washed less often

As you grow old your scalp produces less oil, hence you should wash it less frequently

If you suffer from flaky scalp it may be dandruff or some other condition such as psoriasis if you are not sure you should get it checked.

Use shampoo on the scalp area instead of whole length of hair

Use a 2 in 1 conditioner for convenience or use a conditioner after every shampoo

Apply conditioner on the tips of the hair

Choose a shampoo and conditioner formulated for your type of hair

Before you go swimming you should wet and condition your hair or wear a swimming cap

You can get a special swimmers shampoo and conditioner to replace lost moisture.

Balanced nutrition plays a vital role for healthy hair.
